Garden Lights

Microsoft added more "lights" to the garden. That's right. On the first of January, April, July and October, Microsoft awards a new group of MVP's (Most Valuable Professional). Warmest congratulations to all awardees!

Although I am sure there will be others I will hear about, I am most excited about the award to Maddoktor2 (Robert Glass), the founder of ASAP and Administrator of numerous security forums, including his own site at SpyWareBeWare!

The MVP Program as described by Microsoft:

"The Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Program recognizes and thanks outstanding members of technical communities for their community participation and willingness to help others. The program celebrates the most active community members from around the world who provide invaluable online and offline expertise that enriches the community experience and makes a difference in technical communities featuring Microsoft products.

MVPs are credible, technology experts from around the world who inspire others to learn and grow through active technical community participation. While MVPs come from many backgrounds and a wide range of technical communities, they share a passion for technology and a demonstrated willingness to help others. MVPs do this through the books and articles they author; the Web sites they manage; the blogs they maintain; the user groups they participate in; the chats they host or contribute to; the events and training sessions where they present, as well as through the questions they answer in technical newsgroups or message boards.

Microsoft MVPs are simply an amazing group of individuals. We are excited to recognize and award MVPs as our way of saying "thank you" for their demonstrated commitment to helping others in technical communities around the globe."
